James Joyce Institute of Ireland Annual Pre-Bloomsday Walk: Abode of Bliss
The James Joyce Institute of Ireland is proud to lead its annual pre-Bloomsday Walk. This year’s walk, “Abode of Bliss,” will follow the routes of the Ithaca and Calypso episodes of Ulysses, also incorporating the one-legged sailor’s visit to Eccles Street in Wandering Rocks and a short Finnegans Wake related detour to Four Masters Park. The itinerary leads from North Great George’s Street to North Great Denmark Street, Temple Street, Hardwicke Place, Eccles Street and Dorset Street. Readings and reenactments will take place en route.
The tour starts at the James Joyce Centre. The duration is approximately two hours.
The walk is conducted by Robert Nicholson, author of The Ulysses Guide: Tours Through Joyce’s Dublin and Secretary of the James Joyce Centre Board of Directors. Nicholson will be accompanied by members of the James Joyce Institute of Ireland. The public are welcome to join in at no charge. Bring a copy of Ulysses if you have one.
